Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue

"If you try to lay your hand on Jasper, I'll be the first to stop you. You might not care for him, but I do. Even if I'm not around..." Alyssa's sad eyes looked at Jasper's mother's tombstone. "Don't you think Auntie Anne would care? As the noble, high, and mighty chairman of the Beckett Group, don't you think it's distasteful to get physical in front of the deceased?"

Alyssa had just uttered the deadliest and harshest words in the most nonchalant tone.

The look in Javier's eyes sank. He clenched his jaw so tightly that it was about to break open.

"Mr. Javier, I think it's not a great day for you to pay your respects to Auntie Anne today. We appreciate the gesture. I'm sure Auntie Anne feels the same way. I think it's best if you leave." Rory and the bodyguards sighed in relief as Alyssa loosened her grip.

Javier's face was as pale as a ghost. Yet, he gritted his teeth and was unwilling to give up. "I've canceled everything today to come and see her.

"I'll leave after I see her for a while."
